Welcome to my kitchen, I will just about be
dishin'
What as much as you can take
Scoop my heart into a plate
Step into the light and my eyes are opened
wide
Let me flash at you a smile that I've been
practising a while
As much as you can take
If I fall of the stage will you feel fully
entertained?
Well I really don't mind if you're not listening
I could be myself, I could be somebody else
There's a million other people I'd rather
be
But it's much, too much, too late
CHORUS:
All welcome tonight
Hope you're feeling alright
I could be cornering myself
Out here in a daze
Don't believe what I say
I'm full of promises
I should be alone, you know I should have
stayed at home
But these butterflies inside, they wanna
take me for a ride
It's over pretty quickly
Still, it makes me feel quite sickly
And I hope that you don't mind you know I
do this all the time
I often wonder why...
CHORUS
La la la la la hope you're feeling alright
All welcome tonight...hope you're feeling
alright
Aaaaaaahhhh....
